I was Type 2 for almost 10 years. Kicked the diagnosis, and even the prediabetes diagnosis, in less than 18 months. It's doable, if your pancreas is not to blame. Mine wasn't because it was all my doing- sedentary lifestyle and a crap diet. I had go to low carb, and only allow good carbs. I even cut way back on raw fruit…

When motivation is low, that is when self-discipline comes in. Look into that, and see if it doesn't help. Plenty of books and websites out there, so you can find approaches and wisdom that speak to you and techniques that work for you! Best wishes!!

107 lbs in 16 months. The last 15 were brutally slow to go!

Down 107 lbs in 14 months! At 174 now. Goal range was 175-180. Now onto toning and getting rid of what jiggle is left over muscle, so maybe the weight will go down a little lower naturally, or may increase because of muscle gain? Not sure. The extra skin has to stay though. :(

A few years, but recently have kept at it for almost 400 days of daily logging. 102 lbs. :-) MFP works for me. I'm sad for those who don't get much out of it. Good luck finding what works for you. It's out there!! <3

I'm 38, recovering food addict, down 100 lbs in a year, and rid of my Type 2 Diabetes and Hypertension in that time. I'm doing very well, and would love to have fun people on my friends list. Check my profile for more information about me and to see if you would click with me. :-)

Congrats on your hard work- and not just your weight loss, but for your children and your degree! I'm sorry you aren't getting the support you need. Do you consider positive feedback and attention to be your favored "love language" - your preferred method of being shown appreciation, validation, and affection? If so, and…

647 bread from Schmidt is amazing- about $4 a loaf here, but it goes on sale around here often. The nutrition works for me, especially the fiber level. Comes in wheat, white, and Italian. http://schmidtbaking.com/products/647-2/ Everyone and their grandma seems to love Ezekiel bread, but I can't afford it at $6+ a loaf,…

When you sit on the edge of the tub to shave your legs, you will wobble back and forth on bone. That's a very new balancing act for me! LOL

Almost 90 lbs. down, and no more Diabetes!

I just had Type 2 Diabetes (10 years with the diagnosis) removed from my medical chart after my A1C went from 7.3 to 5.2 in under a year with no meds or insulin. Diet and exercise only. It's doable! I stayed under 120g of carbs and 22g of sugar most days, and my fasting levels were 72-105 each morning after 2 months at…

Enlightened sent me a few free product coupons in the summer, and I got to try a couple varieties. Nothing near the real stuff, but still pretty delicious.

Admitting I was a food addict, and changing my mindset to reflect that. Behaviorally and mentally, there has been a major change in me since I owned the addiction. Made all the difference! 84 lbs down, and my A1C went from diabetic-level to normal in less than 10 months.

1) There's a whole empty row of cardio machines exactly the same, yet you just had to pick the one right beside mine, didn't you? :( 2) A stranger who will watch you on a weight machine. CREEPERS. A woman and I were switching between the abductor and adductor machines, and an older man stood at the chain link wall that…
